Columbia University added 15 parking spaces to the park and ride program at its Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory campus, bringing the total to 36 spaces. The program allows Columbia employees living in the Rockland County area to give up their car commute to Columbia’s Morningside and Manhattanville campuses by parking at Lamont and catching the free Columbia Transportation shuttle.
Beginning Wednesday, December 1, the Studebaker North stop on the Intercampus and Lamont shuttles (currently located at 3258 Broadway) will be moved to the North side of 131st Street to 3270 Broadway, in front of the No Parking sign seen in this image.
